2:55 HOW? A statuory water damaged write off it totally unable to be legally registered again unless every single little part is replaced with new OE parts and a massive paper trail.
A lot of Australian write-offs are also sent over to NZ, no issues over there with getting them fixed up & registered, unlike here, even for repairable write-offs...
I managed to half fix it, but I don’t think the reliability would have been there, so managed to score a replacement from someone that had wrecked a G6E.

Statutory write off is an Aussie thing. Here, cars are written off either by insurance companies or owners. This car was not written off by either.

Nice cars are the FGX, glade it was saved
For sure man, it turned out to be a really nice car in the end, plus, I think only 3000 odd were made, so I’m stoked I could save it! Cheers mate
been there done that the lower sill panels under the doors start to rust out no treatment.
Really? Thanks for the tip mate, is that due to poor drainage from the sills?
Good job man !!
Hey thanks, I appreciate it coming from you mate, your work is next level!
@@nonrasputin9260 thank you man 🙏🏻 what’s the next project?
@@Nbogaart310 I have New Zealands most hated ex-cop car that I bought at the damaged car auctions, watch this space mate!
How did you manage to save the ICC? Or did you need to replace that as well?

was it not flagged as water damaged??? Did buyer know the history?
Yes, buyer knew complete history, all build videos shared, I would hate to be ripped off or deceived, so I would not do that to anyone else mate.
Not accusing you of anything, simply a question. I find your videos very interesting. How was the vehicle not flagged water damaged?@@nonrasputin9260
